    From one of my favorite episodes of South Park.

    HAHAHA... "You have ZERO friends"

    Yep! They lampooned the Facebook craze to perfection.

    I had gone to a Downs Syndrome Christmas party with my grandson who was 15 at the time, and he wanted to take my pic, so I let him and thought he did a good job. Thus, I used his pic since I really don't have very many of myself looking at the camera.

    Taken by my wife outside the 'Fat Frog' cafe' in Keystone, South Dakota during our whirlwind summer vacation through the States last year.
    That's our daughter, Rachel in the background, enjoying an ice cream cone.

    Last weekend I was feeling really bad about myself for gaining 5 pounds. My friend Phil told me that I was still a hottie...and he called me a "black warrior princess". So...I was just being what he called me! :happy:

    My new profile picture is what I used to look like right after high school (about 6 years ago) and what I would like to once again look like soon.

    I'm a rock climber. This is me on a 5.11a in the New River Gorge, West Virginia in May 2012.

    New Years party at a friend's house. A game these friends do at parties is everyone puts on hats. (They have a ton because they make their own costumes and go to Renaissance Faires and that sort of thing often, so there's a lot of variety.)
    My winter coat went awesome with the top hat so my friend took a picture.

    A picture of me from my recent vacation in Menorca.

    I'm actually a really unphotogenic person, but that's one of the few pictures of me that I actually like.

    It's a picture of my dad and I taken last month on a camping trip we took. Every year, we go to this campground in Oregon that I grew up going to since I was about 2. His parents took him there when he was a kid, so it's a family tradition for over 50 years. My dad was / is one of my inspirations to getting into healthier shape. (I say was because my dad just recently passed away from lung cancer). It's my favorite picture of him and I, and helps keep me motivated. He had so much faith in me, so when I start to lose faith in myself, I just look at that picture and am reminded that I can do this.

    Mine is my newest tattoo (a year old now). It is a Sailor Jerry design. I wanted an old school pin up girl, and I LOVE pirates.
    Her name is Scarlett and I tell everyone she is my alter ego.

    My hubby took this pic of me while we were hiking in Zion NP. I'm sitting at the Upper Emerald Pool at the top of that trail. It was quite a serene spot, and seeing this pic really takes me back there. I swiped a copy off his FB.

    I was just at Upper Emerald Pool in Zion this last weekend. It is a special serene place.

    It was taken at an event I was really looking forward to and was my first real chance to go out and have fun after losing 43 pounds.

    After leaving MFP from my old acct end of July...I created a new acct with a limited group of people...and only had up inspirational pictures...but Sept 8th when turning 35...I decided that I would update a picture...Today I loaded my journey here on mfp since Nov2010 til today...Feeling a little bad for gaining 10pd back over the course of weeks due to stress and emotional eating....(Example that food is the bulk of the journey) still worked out... But I still stand proud because I know i will get this off and some....When I look at my PP I smile...

    This is the last "fat face" picture I plan to take of myself. I think it's a cute pic, but I just don't like the roundness of my face, and the double chin....*sigh* It's going down!!!:angry:

    Like tracydroberts, I'm calling it my last "fat face" picture.

    Taken about a week before I decided to do something about how heavy I have gotten. I had just eaten a plate full of churros covered in carmel sauce at El Torritos Sunday Buffet. No more of that for me!

    This is the fattest I have ever been. 12 stone, last year on holiday in crete. I was fat, frumpy and hated the way I looked, although I did manage to enjoy the time away. I used it as a profile picture to remind me of how I was and felt. This year I'm going away and I'm 10 stone. Yee hah!

    At my first Lions Convention and loving the fact that the Lions jacket I am wearing had gone from being a very tight fit when I bought it to absolutely swimming on me. If it didn't have my name on it, I would have given it away by then.
